Bug #: 29861
Summary: Installer should be adding another administrator
accound if instructed to do so.
Product: MediaWiki
Version: 1.19-svn
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: Installation
AssignedTo: wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org
ReportedBy: bugzilla.wikime...@publi.purodha.net
CC: bugzilla.wikime...@publi.purodha.net,
innocentkil...@gmail.com
Classification: Unclassified
Using the installer a second time on an existing wiki data base
(with localsettings.php removed or lost)
will be able to restore localsettings.php and asks to create
an administator account for the wiki but does not create it.
The installer should either not ask for administrator data,
or warn that this account already exists / does not exist,
and create or update it if asked to. Creating a new or additinal
admin account would be useful if the original accounts password
was lost and no e-mail address exists for it, or there was a
typo in the name initially, etc.
